In order to get more draft picks, and since the top OL will most likely be off the board. It looks as if the next batch of OL will go in the later first round, and on...do you think they will trade down, obtain numerous draft picks, and still get a Levi Brown, or someone like that?

If anything I think that they should try to trade down cuz in recent draft history u really cant tell which OL will be good in the NFL. An example is last year. Dbrickashaw was drafted in a high pick. Marcus Mcneill was a 2nd round pick. Who went to hawaii, Marcus and not Dbrickashaw. So u really cant tell so trading down would be ideal.

I don't think they will for several reasons. Even though Coach Whisenhunt is an offensive guru, he knows that the defense is also an important part of the team. Let's face it, the Cardinals could use help in a lot of different areas. I think they can address their offensive line needs later in the draft and in free agency, as only 2 offensive linemen are rated as first round selectees (Joe Thomas and Levi Brown). I would have to agree with most of the experts that say they'll choose DE Jamaal Anderson of Arkansas with the 5th pick in the draft. He is an excellent lineman and top rated defensive player in the draft. Don't expect Whisenhunt to go with offensive players just because he was an offensive coordinator. He does his homework and will draft the right man for the right job. Time to turn this franchise around!

i think they will try to move down a few spots, especially because there are a number of pretty strong o-line prospects, guys like levi brown, justin blalock, arron sears, ben grubbs, ryan kalil. they might try to make a move with atlanta or a team around there, especially because atlanta desperately needs good receivers, but i don't think that arizona will want to go down past about 12 or 13, because then that's just a too many teams that need offensive linemen. i think that since thomas probably won't fall to them at 5, they will try to move down and grab brown or blalock around the 10-14 range
